A technical paper by Olympian Water Testing specialists
The types of advanced lead testing technology that are available for use in the home
You can buy different forms of high tech water lead testing technology [1] at home. These technologies can enable homeowners to spot and resolve lead risks in their own homes and can also maintain occupant safety.
Handheld devices are one type of advanced lead testing technology [2]. These tools are handheld and simple to use, so they can be brought wherever in the house you need lead testing. Smartphones [2] measure lead by X-ray fluorescence (XRF) [3], inductively coupled plasma (ICP) [4] and atomic absorption spectroscopy (AAS) [5]. Portable Test Devices [2]: these can be purchased in a number of prices, and come with a number of features and capabilities such as being able to test different surfaces and materials, being able to save and transmit test data, and being able to report the results live.
The portable analyzers are another kind of leading-testing technology [6]. These devices are essentially the handheld devices [2] but they’re usually bigger and more expensive. Portable analyzers [6] work on the lead detection technique (XRF [3] and ICP [4]) and are usually more sensitive and precise than hand-held analyzers [2]. Small analyzers [6] are for professional lead testers and not usually sold to homeowners.
Online Monitoring Systems are the third type of high-end lead testing technology [7]. These devices monitor the air and surfaces in a house for lead constantly through sensors and other technology. Online lead monitors [7] can notify you in real-time if the lead is detected, but they can also keep you up-to-date on levels of lead within the house. The internet monitoring system [7] is available only for professionals that carry out lead testing services and it is not a solution that homeowners can afford.
There are a few types of professional lead testing systems [1] out there in the house in short. These are handheld devices [2], portable analyzers [6] and online monitoring platforms [7]. All types of technology has their own functions and strengths and applications in the house.

The accuracy and precision of advanced lead testing technology
New lead testing technology [1] will give you more accurate and detailed results than older testing technology [2]. That is because these instruments are using very advanced methods and technologies [3], to measure lead at a very low level [4].
It is the sample quality that can determine the accuracy and sensitivity of high tech lead testing equipment [5]. For safe test results, the collection and preparation of samples need to be performed according to a set protocol [6]. This can be cleaned and dried on the test surface and appropriate sampling procedures [7] so that the sample does not contaminate the tested surface or material.
The other thing that can affect the precision and reliability of high tech lead testing equipment is the ability of the people operating the apparatus [8]. The employees of the device [8] should be properly trained and certified in the use of the technology, and should adhere to the protocols [9] for the use and upkeep of the device [8].
So, the reliability and precision of sophisticated lead testing technology [1] is not determinable. Sample collection and preparation [5] and skill and expertise of the personnel administering the device [8] are both key to getting as close to perfect test results as possible. The test results of this modern-day lead testing technology can be generated with the proper protocols [6, 9] and with the correct servicing and operation of the device [8].
